THE STATE'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) WHAT’S YOUR “BUG”? Secret service agents, in raiding the offices cf promoters of fake stocks and other get-rich- | quick swindles, usually find a “sucker list.” A “sucker list” is made up, for the most part, of’names of “cream puffs,” same being the name that swindlers apply to gents who, in a general way of speaking,, possess at least one share. of every stock ever issued. A “cream puff” is sure- fire when baited by a share of stock beautifully | lithographed in several colors. A “sucker-list” follows the name of each “cream puff” with a key like these: Will give you the glad hand if you talk about pet bug, fishing. i Jolly him about his garden. Obviously, these have a cunning ‘appeal to the prospect’s inner desires—the things he is: most | interested in, but to which, usually, he is too busy | to give his first attention. Psycho-analysts call an inner and repressed | desire a “complex.” For instance, a man in -springtime finds he cannot concentrate on his work. What’s really wrong is that he has a “fish-| ing complex.” His subconscious mind wants to go fishing, ahead of doing anything else. Hence the con- scious mind, befuddled by. the subconscious desire, “has fishing on the brain.” ' as Naturally, he “can’t keep his mind on his work.” | If the man. knocks off work and gets out his tackle and rods, a few days of angling will erase his fishing complex. He comes back, finds it easy to concentrate on his job—and is convinced that the change and the fresh country air. “did hit | worlds of good.” What really happened is, that, he downed his fishing complex by gratifying it. As a slangster would put it, he gets his fishing bug out of his system. ( Psycho-analysts, in presenting that line of -reasoning, secm to think they have found some-, thing new. ~ But it ‘is merely an elaboration, of .what, was defined as “the suppressed function,”: years ago, by Sheldon, Prentice Mulford, David Gibson and other business writers who created the modern psychology of so-called scientific salesmanship. Nothing new under the sun—though hash does} taste different from the original roast of beef. Have you a complex —a repressed'desire? ‘If| so, appeasing it to a moderate extent may do you more good than a barrel of medicine. * The wise boys of Wall Street, almost, without exception, have found their hobby or “bug” and| gratify it—golf, racing horses, yachts, fishing, big-game hunting, raising prizg orchids or get- ting real Scotch from a bootlegger. a PROSPERITY bike Fy Do you share the belief that, if high prices | [ eame-back, we would -necessarily have a return} of war-boom prosperity ? : This notion haunts many, all the way from ysound economists; to economic morons, % At the other end of the line is Russia, with the “highest prices and the lowest degree of prosperity | sin the world. .

We had that same situation, on a small scale, “when sugar was retailing for 28 cents a pound. PRICES Prices are going to keep on falling gradually | for the next 30 years, predicts Charles Henry that man ascended from the ape. It is more logical to believe that the ape de- scended from man. A few of the lowest types of primitive man might very easily have strayed ‘degenerated into monkeys. HEN-PECKED HUSBANDS A secret organization of hen-peckéed husbands has been in existence continuously since the year 3897 B. C., according to a claim set forth on this interesting fraternity’s letterhead. Any husband who feels that he picked a lemon in the garden of love, and want to join, should write to the Ancient and Honorable International Order of Hen-pecker Husbands. . Its-headquarters are at Sowerby, near Bradford, England. Applications are rigidly probed, to keep the or- ganization exclusive for the superlatively hen- pecked. , Women might start a similay organization. For every hen-pecked husband, there are at least two rocster-pecked wives. The joke writers, however, are quiet about that. They are men. Hen-pecked husbands will chuckle at the ver- Hackensick, N.

How much ‘isa “lost wife” -worth?.:: To one-man, ‘she might:betwerth less;ltHan six cents. To another, her perfect mate, her value would be infinitely into the millions. All values are ledative.

Otherwise, a few hundred super-people soon would have all the others in slave chains. te eon of Satan RELIGION .

EWS || AT THE THEATERS | " Florence Reed, Broadway favorite and, star of ‘The Mirage” which held New York enthralled during the en- tire past season, returns to the screen after a long absence, in a remarkable quadruple role in W.

It is this “Faustine” that the “Black Panther” is said to resemble and it is because of her unrelenting greed for gold and 'the,.attention of men, that she has been so named. — i “Faustine,” now a grey and wrinkled old. woman, but whose heart still burns with a passion for greed, Miss Reed does some of tha most wonder- ful acting of hef long and successful career. ‘ : ‘Critics who have seen “The Black Panther’s Cub” credit Miss Reed with the best acting of her career. The Morning Tel2graph of New York says: “We doubt if any actress could touch Lher as Faustine, the courtesan whose charm and radiance holds all Paris at her feet.
